Even behavior was blamed on the position of the sun! Astrology is widely practiced today. Even today most farmers have a Farmer’s Almanac. This book tells you when to plant your crops, and many people have success. Some won’t even think about planting crops without this information. This is a form of astrology, although many people do not realize it. A popular form of astrology is the Physic Friends Network.

The infinite beauty of our world is one that demands a delicate balance of respect. For centuries, all life has coexisted with these just principles.
